ShoSho  (shoshost) | 12263 comments Wow that's great I love rain and thunderstorm. We haven't had rain in more than a month , which is unusual.
I have to sleep now , my husband has given me his back in bed which means he isn't happy with me typing in bed ,hehe

~Megan~ (megadee) Awesome! Suspense is one of my favorite categories, so this week should be a breeze!


message 54: by Melissa (new)

Melissa | 337 comments LOL shosho. I prefer my husband giving me his back. I'm someone that doesn't like to be touched when I'm sleeping unless I'm cold. Hubby tends to be a bed hog and he is a cuddler. I like to cuddle but when it is time to sleep give me my space LOL

Lina | 5563 comments shosho, there's an undercover Private Investigator in Laura's book, I think. If this is correct, I'm happy to pay that. The blurb was a bit unclear though, I got that from one of the reviews.

Laura, could you please clarify the link to the song? (BTW, looks like a good read, couldn't help myself, I added it to my TBR, lol)

i checked the review as well and what i got from there is that there is someone working undercover to solve the mystery of the disappearances.. I'll let you know if theres no PI or police and choose a new book.

~Megan~ (megadee) Finished my book!

She Can Run by Melinda Leigh by Melinda Leigh
Finished: 9/6/12
Review: 4/5 stars

There was a lot going on in this book, maybe too much. Despite that, I enjoyed it very much! Jack was a great hero, and I loved his interaction with the children. Beth was a strong woman, and I admired her for doing what she had to do to protect her kids. I just didn't think the secondary subplot was necessary for this. It was suspenseful enough with Beth being on the run.

The ending was wrapped up with a pretty little bow, just the way I like it. Plausible, probably not, but enjoyable for sure. I will definitely read this author again!

Lina | 5563 comments Cowboy turned cop? Why does that sound hotter than usual?


message 78: by Lina (last edited Sep 06, 2012 05:53PM) (new)

Lina | 5563 comments Good work on the review Megan!

Can I be a nuisance and just ask that you bold some part of your review so it's easier for me to catch when I'm checking the posts? Would be much obliged :-)

Looks good to me, Megan, but could you put the book title and/or cover and the author? Not too big of a deal now, but the thread is going to get huge and I'll lose track of what you're reading. Thanks!

Book: Gotcha! by Christie Craig
Rating: ★★★1/2
Finished: 09.11.12
Review: I really enjoyed this book. The author has been compared to Janet Evonovich because of the snappy sense of humor. I enjoyed the romance between Jake and Macy. However it was the secondary romance story (view spoiler)
